Here’s a Chiricahua Leopard Frog (Lithobates chiricahuensis), my first photo-worthy encounter. I couldn’t sneak within range on foot, but in a car … they don’t seem to even register it as a threat. I drove to within a few feet and shot this picture out the window, and they only lept into the water upon the opening of my door.
